INSS starts paying pensions this Friday (24)

The INSS (National Social Security Institute) begins to pay monthly benefits this Friday (24th) to retirees, pensioners and policyholders who receive aid and BPC (Continued Benefit).

​The payment date varies according to the value and the final number of the benefit card, located before the dash that separates the check digit.

For benefits of up to one minimum wage (R$ 1,212), the lowest amount allowed for retirement and pensions paid by the INSS, payment starts this Friday (24) and runs until Thursday, July 7. Deposits for those who receive above the floor will be made between the 1st and 7th of July.
